hey i got a 97 celica gts and my steering starts to like go loose and wobble when i'm goint about 100km/h or over. anything underneath 80km/h the steering is nice and stiff but i dont' know why it wobbles at such high speeds.

i just got my wheels balanced but that didn't seem to help the problem.

I would have guessed alignment or wheel balance. However, you might want to take it to a Toyota Dealer and ask them to take it i the highway over 100 km/h and most oftem the mechanic will know the cause, and if they charge you for he work and the problem exisits, usually they'll will try and fix it without charging you again since they didn't correct the problem the first time.

feel the top of your front tires, you might be able to tell if the belts are worn, that is what happened to mine, got new tires and the shaking of the wheel went away. let me know how it works out wink.gif

Hi. Check the tires for air pressure and balance. I had a similar problem with my old 5th gen celi and that solved it.
